Website update

I have used a number of systems to run and host my website. The latest was Wordpress. Wordpress is very customisable and allows you to get blog posts up quickly and relatively easily. But the problem with any of these well known systems is that they attract a lot of interest from would-be hackers.

Everyday I am alerted to failed attempts to log in to the website. Realistically, for the most part, my site is just static text, so I do not really need the interaction and additional features provided by tools like Wordpress. So I have made the decision to migrate my site over to static web pages. This removes any login pages and should remove the opportunity for anyone to try to hack anything. Static pages are great because they are quick to serve and should provide a very responsive website.

I also have decided to refocus my site towards sharing my knowledge and experience from my 35+ years working in the IT industry. I will be posting about Software development, line management, and everything that it takes to forge a successful career in IT to hopefully help others.

Anyway, I hope you like the changes I have made and find something useful on the site.
